Best Paraben-Free Moisturizers in India for Oily, Sensitive and Acne-Prone Skin

When looking for a moisturizer, lots of other facts play a big role. Such as Price, Suitability, SPF, Ingredients and the consistency especially if you have Oily, Sensitive, and Acne-Prone Skin. In case of Oily Skin in Summers and Dry in Winters (like me), one more factor adds-in which is "Lightweight Moisturizer". Right? 😇 And when you have sensitive as well as acne-prone skin, it is really a sensitive task to pick one. 

We don't want annoying pimples. 😄 So let's get into the list of Best or Top 5 Paraben and Chemical-Free Moisturizers in India for Oily, Sensitive, and Acne-Prone Skin.

Before moving on to the list, I would like to mention that the List is in No Particular Order and each and every product is tried and experienced by me. Also, these products are Unisex so Both Male and Female Parties can try it. 😃 And yes, you can use these moisturizers under makeup too. 

My Skin Type: Oily in Summers and Dry in Winters along with Sensitive and Acne-Prone Skin. I get breakouts, rash, pimples, open and clogged pores really easily if the product doesn't suit me.

If you have super oily skin or combination, this will be so apt for you. Innisfree products work awesomely for my skin. They improved my skin and never ever gave me a breakout. This cream actually balanced my oily skin and bought it back to normal/combination skin. It isn't sticky or heavy and does a great job of moisturizing without being heavy on the skin.

Biotique Morning Nectar Skin Moisturizer

Biotique Morning Nectar Skin Moisturizer

Price: Rs.199/- for 120 ml

Rs.149/- for 120ml (Amazon.in)

I can go for any Biotique Product as it understands my skin so well. Also, it is a Chemical-Free Brand and is so effective for me that they work as a treatment. Plus it is affordable as well.

I won't put this moisturizer under the lightweight category as no doubt it is an Intense Moisturizer and a bit heavy for oily skin but the way it healed my rashes and gave me back my soft, supple, pink and healthy skin, I am in love with it. During summers, it will be heavy and shiny for oily skin but it is soothing as well. Even after being an Intense one, it didn't give me breakouts or clogged pores. 


Whenever a new product doesn't suit me, I come back to this. Can be used as a night cream and as a winter moisturizer as well.
